The title, and perhaps the theme, of this song come from a 16th-century poem by the Spanish Catholic mystic St. John of the Cross:
She caught me off guard when my soul said to me,
“Have we met?”
So surprised I was to hear her speak like that
I chuckled.

Dig Here Said the Angel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
“Dig here,” said the angel
I asked “My heart? Or my grave?”
“Maybe both,” said the angel
"Things can go either way"
[Verse 2]
“There’ll come a time,” said the angel
“You’ll lose that wrinkled suit of skin
And when you walk up to the big door
You can go right on in"
I cried then
[Chorus]
"I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
Night and day
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
To see your beautiful face"
[Verse 3]
“Here’s the catch,” said the angel
“You’re gonna suffer for awhile”
“I’ll tell you straight,” said the angel
“Don’t plan to go out in style”
And meanwhile
[Chorus]
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
Night and day
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
To see your beautiful face
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus]
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
Night and day
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
Night and day
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
Night and day
I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’, I’m dyin’
To see your beautiful face
[Outro]
To see your beautiful face
